The Daytona Sensor Box is excellent! You can Map your own Curve, set rev limiter, also dial in advance curves that are preset, they will work with a mag trigger or Merc Hall effect type. You can purchase a interface cable and also log data. Have been set up with them since they came on market again. They have made improvements on the electronics that Crane wasn't willing to do.

Who's 'we' ? You now have a dyno and build engines with other people or are you talking about another business that uses one you sold them on their dyno + car(s)?

I bought one as a spare and to go to the dyno with. Worked fine. Use the coil supplied. Other coils like the MSD blaster did not work which we found out after 1/2 day troubleshooting.

Hector and Allen are both very good to deal with and will get back to you. They also have a pretty comprehensive listing/down load for there products online.

I have always used some kind of ign box, first MSD then after my old box got physically damaged I bought a MSD marine boxe. The marine boxes were such JUNK that I will NEVER buy a msd product again, 3 boxes, all had different problems, one of them was completely doa, ended up buying a ignition tester, saved alot of time trouble shooting there junk. I am currently running a crane box, it has been trouble free. I am lucky too, if box does start to act up on a mefi system you can simply bypass it, Smitty

Also running HI6-M
To all the OSO experts. I have been running the Crane HI6-m Marine ignition boxes with my 502 Blower motors. I had a box fail and realioze that these boxes have been dicontinued with none or very few around the country.
I spoke to the guys at Daytona Sensors. They are ex Crane guys and seem very knowledgeable one being the Head design engineer from crane that desined the Hi-6M. i believe that is correct. They offer a new and improved ignition box similar to the Hi-6M .
Has anyone used their products.?? Any questions or comments.
They seem like they are a good option. Not cheap though.
thanks for all comments and info.
